The word is that in Jefferson Parish and Orleans, FEMA has "bugged out." They haven't brought supplies in.

THE REAL MILITARY IS NOW FLOWING IN. National Guard is being replaced before our eyes. Watch the feed.

Word is that the Marines are at 1515 Poydras where our OC4s are. I think we're coming back online in force shortly.

On another note: I've just been told that we're being monitored in Iraq! To all the troops there, from one soldier to another, we're hanging tough here and you hang tough too. No matter what you're hearing, we love you guys and want you to know that we know how hard you've got it. Stay strong!

	regardless of what happened, if FEMA really did "bug out" there is going to be hell to pay. they exist for one purpose only and if they're "bugging out"... :( (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Re: damn djmedieval 2005-09-01 06:42 pm UTC (link)
	I wouldn't fault FEMA at all if they're bugging out because they're being shot at. FEMA is not the military, they don't show up for work to get shot at or killed. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	webranding 2005-09-01 06:47 pm UTC (link)
	That is the best I can tell right now. They are trying to establish an open line of communication. In the last 30 minutes that is about all I have heard, other then the fact a guard unit was being sent to a hospital to try to get out the senior staff. But I didn't have my audio capture program running, so I didn't catch the hospital where they were being sent. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	FEMA doesn't have the capability to simultaneously give aid and defend itself against hostiles. If the situation has deteriorated to the level of street warfare, then it's a reasonable decision on the part of FEMA command to pull out. If they can't get defense support, then they need to safeguard their people. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	bdu 2005-09-01 06:43 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, protecting FEMA would typically be the local Nat. Guard's responsibility, but you know a good portion of them and most of their gear are overseas so... Complete ineptitude of leadership on this one. (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)
